Notice: 1.7.10 version needs VoltzEngine, 1.12.2 is stand-alone and has no dependencies at this time.
Notice: ICBM has no built in power generators. It is recommended to install another mod such as Mekanism, Actual additions, IC2, and Thermal Expansion to get power for the machines.
ICBM-Classic
Everyone loves PvP and blowing your enemies up with style... but how do you get those explosives to your enemy. That is where missiles come into play. With ICBM classic you gain the ability to craft a wide range of explosives, mount them on missiles, and launch them into an orbital path with your foe.
Oh, but it doesn't stop there with just a few quick explosions. ICBM classic has a range of different styles to meet the needs of a growing empire. Starting with the classic TNT explosion embodied by the condensed and breaching charge. To step up your game it includes more specialized explosives such as the sonic, repulsion, antigravity, and emp. To top it off it includes the favorite thermobaric and nuclear explosions to give a warm welcome. Finally at the end when your enemy still has not had enough ICBM classic presents the Antimatter and Redmatter explosions. For when you need an entire base to disappear or in the latter be crushed into nothingness by a blackhole.

Different Versions
This version is a direct port of Calclavia's ICBM last updated in for Minecraft 1.6.4. The current mod that uses the name ICBM is a complete rewrite and redesign not based on the original.
Sentries
In order to provide a more flexible install and to reduce the complexity of development, sentries have been recreated as an Armory dependency called ICBM-Sentries.

Q.A.
Q: No longer uses VE?
A: For newer versions it was decided to remove the dependency on VE.
Q: How to do I get copper?
A: It is expected that you download a large tech mod to pair with ICBM-Classic. If you don't plan to do this, dungeon loot boxes do contain copper ingots.
Q: How do I get sulfur?
A: For the 1.12 version creepers will drop sulfur 2x as often as gunpowder. This can be used to craft the explosive and make gunpowder.
Q: How do I power the launchers?
A: Use a support power system (Forge Energy for 1.12, Redstone Flux for 1.7, IC2, etc). Then connect something that can feed power into the launcher. For 1.12 any part of the launcher will work. For 1.7 the controller and frame will work.
If desired, the 1.12 version can disable the power requirement via the in game config. This can be toggled while playing and does not require a restart.
Q: why two versions?
A: Short answer, to better support the community's desire for different gameplay styles.
Long answer, When ICBM was updated it was redesigned from the ground up. This upset a lot of die-hard fans and left a hole where the old version existed. People loved the simple nature of the classic version and wanted to experience it again. Which we hoped would be filled and continued in parrel with the rewrite. This led to the idea to let the community update the mod and resulted in the creation of defensetech. Which was not heading anywhere fast so we updated the original as a thank you to the community. Plus I have to admit, I did love the original - DarkCow
Q: Why Defense Tech?
A: Aidian was given permission by our team to work on his own version. The hope was that he would create a good match for the original. This never worked out but he is welcome to continue trying in the future.
Q: Do you plan to add more content?
A: Not sure, right now the goal is to keep to the original design and update for newer versions. At some point, there might be a few minor additions.
Q: Calclavia made ICBM why are you developing it?
A: Yes, Calclavia made the original mod but did not work on it alone. I, DarkGuardsman aka DarkCow, helped with the mod and UE before the team disbanded. During the disband I traded Calclavia for ICBM in order to prevent it from being abandoned. As it was clear Calclavia lost love for working on the mod long before the team disbanded.
Is there a discord server that I can join?
What happens if you target something out of draw distance? Do you have to chase the missle, or will it still destroy blocks?
Also, quite a few things aren't working(like the cluster missiles)... and I don't know what all the little devices do exactly, or how to work the radar... a guide would be helpful.
2 things,
1. Does the 1.12.2 version have computercraft compatibility yet?
2. Suggestion: make it so that you can program coordinates into the launch remote so that any missiles on that remotes frequency launch to those coords. Makes it so that your missiles are more flexible and efficient.
Can someone find me a download for this mod that is 1.4.5 and under?
Why doesn't the crater show when I put 237 in the config file for antimatter explosive?
In reply to Infinityswordofdiamond:
Because it likely has not finished threading the 55M blocks due to the massive size you put into the config. Try to keep the value small as the logic does take time to run. You can use https://www.google.com/search?q=volume+of+a+sphere to plug in numbers to get a rough idea of the scale.
Is there also a date when this mod updates to 1.14.4?
In reply to Infinityswordofdiamond:
Between now and the end of time.
How do I summon an antimatter explosive using commands?
Also, why does the red matter explosive stop getting larger after it hits 10 blocks in radius?
how do i set the homing missiles to home onto something
In reply to viscool8332:
I'd imagine the homing missiles might function like the old interceptors and engage incoming missiles
In reply to the_leaping_tank:
How?
None of the missiles are doing actual damage when I launch them from the missile launcher. They arrive on target but do nothing. Help?
Before you rant to the developers of the mod demanding assistance, ask yourself: "Did I remember to install an external power system such as Thermal Expansion/IC2/etc.?"
Might want to check that before bothering them.
I did not help create this mod in any way, shape, or form. Please do not ask me about your technical issues.
I'm only putting this here because I don't want the developer's time to be wasted answering questions whose answers are obvious.
Mod Creators, please remove this post should it be deemed necessary, or if you're paranoid I'm a robot. (Which I am not, or am I?)
im having difficulties, i cant find energy blocks or satellites with the latest version
In reply to jackwalkins2211:
Neither of those things are included in the mod... not sure why you think they would be.
What kind of recipe do the attractive and repulsive explosives use? I'm trying to add custom recipes for some of the explosives with CraftTweaker, and can't seem to remove the old ones no matter what I try. (so far I've tried shaped, shaped+mirrored, and mirrored. Every other default explosive recipe was removed without a hitch.)
In reply to ultranine1:
We have some custom ones to deal with the new explosive registry.
Comment installer ce mode sur une nintendo switch svp?
In reply to ethan_kdc35:
Vous ne pouvez pas installer de mods sur un commutateur Nintendo ou sur n'importe quelle console, car il n'y a pas d'explorateur de fichiers. Vous pouvez uniquement installer ces mods curseforge sur au moins un PC Windows 7, un ordinateur exécutant une sorte de linux avec Java 8 installé, ou un mac, également avec Java 8 dessus, afin d'exécuter Minecraft Java Edition. (Cependant, vous pourriez utiliser une machine virtuelle, ce serait lent) Désolé.Translation:
You can't install mods on a nintendo switch, or any console for that matter, due to there being no file explorer. You can only install these curseforge mods on at least a Windows 7 PC, A computer running some sort of linux with Java 8 installed, or a mac, also With Java 8 on it, in order to run Minecraft Java Edition. (Though, you could use a virtual machine, it would be slow) Sorry.
